The correct answer is D.
40/8=5 and 48/8=6
To solve this problem we can use simple proportion
If
270$ -------------------------3000 pesos
x $ ---------------------------100 pesos (x$ means that we dont know how much)
Now we crossmultiplying to get proportion
x*3000=270*100
Now we just to solve eq
3000x=27000 /:3000
x=27000:3000
x=9$ - its the result
-1(5x+1)
-5x-1
the (-) in front is just a short way to put (-1)
5/6 = .83333333333333333333333333.... It goes on...
.833333333333333333 * 18 = 15
15 is your answer
Another way you could do it is 18/6 = 3
3+3+3+3+3 = 15
3 being 1/6th of 18 *Hope This Helps...*
